  1. All depends on what sort of riding your doing. I see no point wearing a helmet when I'm only covering 6 or 8 mile on the beach doing more fishing than riding but if you are gonna try and keep up with ya mates, wear the gear. Id be more inclined to spend the cash on getting a couple of helmets for the kids.

    Welcome anyway Angrybear. Gotta love Utah for its trail systems A (from what I've read ) where in Utah if you don't mind me asking

  2. yes, basically the same stuff/concept. the foam i use is two separate tanks with two separate lines, and mixes at the trigger handle. it's dry in 30 seconds ....

    i use the bbq tank style 20lb tanks ....

    Looks good Oxi but wont it hold water?. At the moment I put the presser washer on needel spray and spray in all the drain holes to get the salt water out of the inside of the frame and it drips dry for two days or so will it hold water?

  3. This is a shot of the front nudge bar that has factory powder coat and a bit of my own after market abuse. Its not a real good photo now that I look at it, it does not show how the coating just flaking off.

    Id like to strip the Quad down and have it hot dipped (galvanized) but I'm not so confident in stripping the hole thing, stripping it yes getting it back together that's an entirely new subject

  4. Here are some photos of my fishing Quad. I continually have problems with the electrics and the frame work rust is getting out of control. We do ride the other bikes down on the beach also, but Occasionally, and so I don't want this to happen to them. HELP!

  5. I'm a member of a lot of the big brand forums and some others but, I only signed up to reserve my name (earthmover), just in case I buy one down the track, which is unlikely to happen. I like ATV frontier for the CF-Moto tech-stuff, It seems to be the only English speaking forum, talking about CF-Motos (but then again, those Canadians you have to wonder.) (No offence oxidized_black) and Rincon Riders for obvious reasons. OZATV I don't like it myself I only login because its Australian. I login to Rincon riders & OZATV and of course QuadCrazy most every day. I think in some cases there are double standards with some members preaching one thing and when you meet them for a ride they are doing another, but then that's not the forums fault. I like to think that pictures make a good forum and so I try to post as many as I can, and Quadcrazy is doing a good job there. I would love to see an upload straight from your computer, drag & drop style set up for photos, after all a picture tells a thousand words. I like forums because I cant be interrupted, and people ask a question because they want to know the answer, they're not asking just to be polite.

  6. Seriously though. If we have been down to the beach on the way home we drive an extra 6 mile and go to the river and ride as deep and fast as we can in the fresh water to get the salt off then, when we get home. I presher wash them clean but then I use just the garden hose to get the sand off them because the presher washer just pushers the sand around it doesn't remove it. And then... I get a like garden spray bottle that you pump to get presser in it, fill it with diesel and spray as much of the frame as possible in diesel. If we don't ride in salt its just a presser wash and hose off. Every so offend I strip the plastics off and presser wash them one by one and spray them in diesel, paying particular attention to filling the frame through the drain holes

  7. Just a little ride with my daughter to charge the batterys and give the dogs a run the small kick near the start @ part 1. is my girl & I following some Green Sea turtle tracks to see where its nest is so we can come back in three months and hope fully watch them running across the beach back to the water

  9. I'm looking @ making a trailer for my Rincon to tow on the beach for over night fishing&camping trips. I was just going to use 2" right angel iron and expanded mesh. And then just make a basic box trailer and have it galvanized, but Id rather not have the wheels protruding out of the side. I want to use my two standed front wheels from the Honda, So dose anyone know here I can score an axle, hubs and springs ∨ tourtion bars from very very cheep Any Idea's Tips Tricks Things to look out for would be terrific Thanks
